What To Put In The Perfect Gift Basket

If you’re crafting a gift basket for someone special, the selection of items is nearly as important as the presentation. Here are some ideas for what to put in your perfect gift basket:

Spicy Nuts

Spicy nuts are a great snack to have on hand for watching movies or playing games. You can find them in the snack aisle of most grocery stores, and they make for a perfect gift basket item because they’re easy to transport and don’t spoil quickly. They’re also ideal for sympathy gift baskets since spicy nuts are relatively inexpensive, and people like them whether they’re sick or not (though if you are sick, try to eat only a few).

Hickory Farms experts say, “For those difficult times, delivering sympathy baskets is a good way to show your support.”

Cheese and Crackers

Cheese and crackers are a classic gift. You can find them at any grocery store or in your own kitchen. They’re a great snack for starting a dinner party, perfect for picnics, or even in sympathy gift baskets.

  • Start with cheese: You can never go wrong with cheese! Whether you’re looking for something specific (like cheddar) or just trying to cover all your bases (cheddar AND brie), having some cheese on hand is always helpful when entertaining guests. A few different types of hard cheeses make the best options here because they are easy to share and will satisfy everyone’s taste buds!
  • Pick out crackers: If there is anything better than a nice piece of good quality cheese, it’s paired with the perfect cracker! Crackers come in many shapes and sizes, so visit your local grocery store today – you won’t be disappointed!

Cake in a Jar or Cake in a Cup

Cakes are a wonderful addition to any gift basket, but they can be difficult to transport. Cake in a jar and cake in a cup are two easy ways to add variety to your gift basket without the hassle of packing up fragile treats. These recipes are simple enough that you can make them well in advance of your occasion and package them with the rest of your ingredients!

Salty Kettle Cooked Chips

Salty kettle-cooked chips are an excellent choice if you’re looking for the perfect addition to a gift basket. They’re crunchy and salty, which makes them ideal for dipping into your favorite dip or salsa. They also go great with other snacks like nuts and cheese!

Of course, if your audience is more specific than “anyone who enjoys chips,” plenty of options also fit their tastes. For example, you could include some crinkle-cut French fries for those who prefer something fried; potato chips for those who prefer something salty, or even tortilla crisps for people from Latin America (or just big fans of guacamole).

The Perfect Gift Basket is a perfect gift for anyone, and it can be customized to fit any budget. Choose a few items on sale, or even make your own by using coupons and discounts from the grocery store. The possibilities for this gift are endless!
